George Will just wrote a great article on how Greed in a free market society eventually comes back to bite the Greedy, the whole time reading it I was thinking about the new Yankee stadium and BIN Ebay sellers. I really think the Red Sox are watching this and thinking very seriously about never tearing down Fenway. I still can't believe they tore down the house that Ruth built, that would be like Rome taking down the Colosseum it is just plain wrong. And for the new prices, it is shameful and a slap in the face to the average Yankee fan, and all baseball fans.

Where do you pay $32 for parking, the yankee garages are only $19 which is the same at most stadiums i think.

Yankee Stadium Parking
My mistake according to the $237 million bond to build Parking Lots by the Industrial Development Agency approximately 9000 spots will be built on what was neighborhood parkland and in the fine print in the contract the Yankees signed with the city the spots will be ready by 2010 and have to be priced at $29 not $32 and Valet parking will only be $40. The prices are fixed until 2014 when a regular spot will be a minimum of $35 and possibly more. I am sorry for the erroneous information as this year the price is only $19. I guess if you are paying $2600 a seat you can afford the valet parking.

Ya keep hearing about the $2600 seat as if every seat will cost this amount.
This is just for the select seats by homeplate & the dugouts. Just like floor seats for the NBA games. I doub't its all that cheap to sit on the floor at a Lakers game next to Jack, yet no one complains about it. The Yankees have already sold 3.4 million seats at the new stadium, and will have to have near sellouts to draw the 4 million. Also the new stadium has less seats then the old one. So on some games like all against Boston they could easily sell more tix if they had the space. I've heard nothing but good things about the Stadium as Al pointed out and I'll see for myself when I go in a week & change w/ M. Sarno. We have great seats, and the cost was $50 per. Just a little shy of the $2600 that people love to refer to. By the way I've been to over 150 Yankee games from the original stadium to the refurbished one. And I've never sat by the dugout or directly behind home plate. So it doesn't matter to me if they are $500 or $10K a pop, It won't affect me at all. Last edited by Jay Wolt; 05-23-2009 at 12:48 PM.
